OK, had the main power off here at my place, deliberately disconnected it so I could connect in the main DB Box of the flat I am building on… and we ran 15 minutes late, I apologize.

Everything back up and running successfully… so I am ready to go!

Pocock is damn good.
28

grootblousmile on 22 July 2016 at 10:27 am

Landers knock… and a Landers player plays the ball from an offside position, Brumbies relieving penalty… good touchfinder to about 5m inside the Brumbies half.
29

grootblousmile on 22 July 2016 at 10:29 am

Play-off rugby is an anmal of a totally different nature…. and although Aussie rugby and their Conference has been rather freegin abysmal in 2016, it looks like the Brumbies are fully up for this game!

I cannot recall seeing any line out throws in Super Rugby penalised for being not straight this season.

I have seen a few in CC and at Craven Week, but not in SR.
